内家

Internal Martial Arts

I maintain a comprehensive practice of traditional internal martial arts in Seattle as part of Yin Cheng Gong Fa North America (YCGF).

I am a formal lineal student of Zhang Yun laoshi, who studied internal martial arts under Wang Peisheng in Beijing — my practice includes the following arts as taught in the lineage of Wang Peisheng and his disciple Zhang Yun:

  • Northern Wú style Taiji ( 吳氏太極 ) is known for its relaxed character, giving practitioners the ability to off-balance an opponent at first touch by borrowing their force.

  • Yin style Bagua ( 尹派八卦 ) is known for its smooth and fluid nature, giving practitioners the ability to change spontaneously in response to an opponent's actions.
  • Hebei Xingyi ( 冀形意 ) is known for its stability, giving practitioners an ability to express sudden and explosive power.

Yuèshān-guan [ 月山館 ] is how this activity is recorded in the catalogue of YCGF practitioners. I put special emphasis on classical Taiji and traditional methods of sword, saber, and spear.
